Respect the language....

I met a talkative girl in my toastmasters club. She is very good at her English language; she has good grammar, right ascent and ability to pronounce the words. She is vocal about right use of English among our club. Thanks to her schooling, she had strict English teachers.  
I am on the other hand; do not have any sense of language. I am not even sure of right use of my mother tongue, so English don’t even ask. I have tried a lot to improve my English but realize the difficult to speak genuine English. Even then I have learned to express myself with all grammatical and pronouncing issues.  My meeting with some Middle East people gave me extra confidence. Some people say, if Americans can speak American English and English men can speak British English, then why cant a Keralite speak ‘Mallu English’. It gave me confidence to next level but I didn’t want to ignore improvement. Definitively, work on my confidence than having right English.

Last week, we all went for an annual conference. Few people along with my friend who loves talking as well came with me. While coming back, they all reminded me to drop them back at a particular point. My friend is not a south Indian, she said ‘ANNNNNNNNNNA (brother in Tamil, in a weird accent and she thought Anna is a Malayalam word). Please drop back near my house’. Then I realized how weird it will be when a language is miss use and what will be the sentiments of the people who knows that language correctly J

My Parrot.....

I bought a parrot.... I bought a cage for the parrot.... I did everything to make the parrot comfortable... but I put the parrot in the cage... I fed the parrot.... I thought her call my name... I am used to hear my name in the morning... My mornings have a meaning.... That took me to different level of person... The person I wanted... The person I dream of.... I still awake with my parrots call... I earned the ability to do things for parrot... I have decorated the cage with gold... The cage made of gold... But I noticed my parrot... Is she happy?  She is calling me still... Is she satisfied ? That made me think... I saw the pain in her face... I saw the dryness in her voice... I saw the weakness in her smile.... I have open the door of her golden cage.... I want to free you up... Parrot  is not able to walk through the doors... Parrot worried about her duty... Parrot still awake me... from her open cage... with no energy no enthusiasm.... ...

Captain Phillips Movie Review

Captain Philips is a film by director Paul Greengrass based on the hostage situation of Captain Richard Philips during the ship hijacking by Somalian pirates in 2009. Tom Hanks played the role of Captain Philips and as always my favourite actor has done justice to his role. The movie starts with Captain Philips’s journey from his home to ship departure land Salaala port. Captain Philips commands the ship Maersk Alabama, travelling from Oman – Kenya, through the danger zone, Somalia. It shows an ordinary start for an ordinary man. Then movie takes us to Somalia and shows how pirates are forced to attack ships. Pirates are played by Somalian actors. Pirate’s leader is Abduwali Muse, played by Barkhad Abdi. It shows the risk and athletic effort taken by pirates, onscreen in a documentary kind of realistic way. At the same time the helplessness of the ship crew to protect themselves without an armed security is also shown in a parallel manner. The Captain takes all pos...
